Your baby’s first year is filled with unforgettable moments - tiny toes, sleepy smiles, and so many milestones. But between night feeds and nappy changes, capturing it all can feel overwhelming, but we’re all about keeping things simple, beautiful, and stress-free.
In this post, we’ll share 5 easy (and mess-free!) ways to record your baby’s most precious moments - even if you’re running on two hours of sleep.

1. Use our Inkless Print Kit to capture those tiny hands & feet.
Traditional ink can be messy and stressful with a wriggly newborn. Our Inkless print kits are completely safe for baby’s delicate skin and the best part - they are mess-free! Simply wipe your little ones foot or hand and press onto the specially formulated card, wait a few hours for the print to fully develop and you will have a keepsake to last a life time
Bonus Tip: Add our DIY milestones to document your babies age or special prompt for a seamless and clean look - also don't forget to frame your darling little prints

2. Milestone Cards for Every Occasion
From Birth to 12 months and all those special moments in between, our Inkless milestone cards are a simple way to celebrate and photograph each new moment.

3. Monthly Baby Milestone Photos
Decide what theme you want, whether its the same outfit or the same backdrop and take your monthly photo. Using the same milestone card each time for consistency will make the most stunning growth collage by their first birthday.
Parent Hack: Use a plain swaddle or playmat or even their cot/bassinet as your backdrop for a clean, cohesive look each month.

4. Keep record of their 'first'
Keeping record of your baby through the years doesn’t have to mean long paragraphs. Just write down their special first or something your baby did, a funny noise they made, or how you felt in that moment. You’ll love reading it back later, and it takes less than a minute a day.
Our Keepsake Photo Album also has prompts to write down these special moments as well as a letter to your baby on their first birthday - which brings us to number 5

5. Print your baby's photos!!
Don’t let your camera roll become a black hole of forgotten memories. Set a monthly reminder to:
• Select your fave photo
• Print them out
• Pop them into your baby photo album next to their monthly milestone card
Include printed milestone card snapshots for extra sweetness and storytelling power.
